SR507: SR507 Tumanova, Katya; congratulate

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It recognizes Katya Tumanova, a member of the Midtown High School girls swim relay team in Fulton County, for winning first place in the 400 Free Relay and breaking the school record by seven seconds with a time of 3:31.75. The resolution formally congratulates Tumanova and her teammates, Rhea El-Deiry, Dabney Bond, and Sarah Paisley Owen, for their athletic performance, dedication, and teamwork. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to Tumanova as a keepsake of the honor.

The resolution names Katya Tumanova and her Midtown High School swim relay teammates, Rhea El-Deiry, Dabney Bond, and Sarah Paisley Owen, along with the school and Fulton County community they represent.

The resolution has no legal effect and changes no Georgia law. Its practical impact is symbolic: it gives the Georgia Senate's formal recognition to a local student athlete's achievement, which she and her school can keep as an honor.

• The whereas clauses describe the Midtown High School girls swim relay team's first place win in the 400 Free Relay and the seven second school record improvement.
• The resolved clause formally congratulates Katya Tumanova and wishes her continued success.
• A further resolved clause directs the Secretary of the Senate to make a copy available for distribution to Tumanova.
